This enables us to plan and optimise our business - for example, maximise the effectiveness of our advertising, products, services and understand how our business is performing.

  • If you are browsing our website, we will not collect any information which will identify you by name. However, we will collect information using cookies or traffic data which uses IP addresses or other numeric identifiers, which analyse how people use our website. See Cookies policy.

  • To communicate with you as well as send you details of special offers and discounts relevant to you.

We and other members of Bon Appetit will keep personal information for as long as is reasonably necessary (or as defined under catering laws and regulations which apply) to provide products and services and to maintain records as needed to satisfy tax and other legal or regulatory requirements, as well as to protect and defend against claims.

 

5. Who do you share personal information with?

​

We may reveal your personal information to other members of Bon Appetit for any of the purposes set out in this privacy policy.

​

When you place an order for products or services with Bon Appetit, the data controller of the personal information will be Bon Appetit. Bon Appetit will process that information. Bon Appetit also provides and processes IT, marketing and other services and any associated personal information.

​

We may reveal your personal information to other people, including in the following circumstances:

​

  • We use other organisations to help us process personal information but they are not allowed to use it for other purposes. We may use the information we receive from other organisations to add to and improve our databases of customer details.

  • We may pass personal information to external agencies and organisations, including the police and other law-enforcement agencies to prevent and detect fraud (including fraudulent transactions) and criminal activity. These external agencies may check the information we give them against public and private databases and may keep a record of those checks to use in future security checks.

  • If a claim is made or could be made, against us or other members of the Bon Appetit, we may pass personal information to our insurers.

  • If we sell or buy any business or assets, we may reveal personal information about you to the prospective seller or buyer of that business or the assets.

  • If we (or substantially all of our assets) are bought or taken over by another organisation (or there is a reorganisation within our corporate group), personal information we hold about customers will be one of the assets transferred.

  • We may pass your personal information to others to keep to any legal obligation (including court orders), to enforce or apply our terms and conditions of use of website or other agreements we have with you, or to protect our rights, property and safety or those of our customers, employees or others.

  • We may disclose an anonymised version of your email address (we use a process called hashing to protect your details) to third party social media sites such as Facebook to enable us to display marketing to you via such sites. "Hashing" is similar to encryption and means that we scramble the plain text of your email address to create a unique and irreversible message. This means that the social media sites do not receive a plain text version of your email address. Where we do this, we require social media providers only to use your information for the purposes of enabling us to display marketing to you through their site and not for any of their own purposes. You can update your social media privacy preferences on your own social media accounts.

​

11. Protecting personal information

​

We use a variety of security technology and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorised access and use. Examples of these are shown below:

​

  • Encryption, meaning that information is hidden so that it cannot be read without special knowledge (such as a password). This is done with a secret code or what’s called a ‘cypher’. The hidden information is said to then be ‘encrypted’.

  • Using a different name for you so we can hide parts of your personal information from view. 

  • Controlling access to systems and networks as this allows us to stop people who are not allowed to view your personal information from getting access to it.

  • Training our staff so we make them aware of how to handle information and how and when to report when something goes wrong.

  • Regular testing of our technology and ways of working, including keeping up to date on the latest security updates

​

We have no control over the contents of other websites or resources which are linked to our website. We accept no responsibility for them or the privacy practices they use, or for any loss or damage that may arise from you using those websites or resources.

​

12. Updating our Privacy Policy

​

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any updates will take effect as soon as they are posted on our website.
